- 1 lb bacon cooked and chopped
- 16 ounces cream cheese at room temperature
- 1 cup shredded white cheddar cheese *save a few shreds for the football laces
- ½ cup crumbled blue cheese
- ¼ cup chopped green onion
In a bowl, mix together approximately half of the bacon with the cream cheese, white cheddar, blue cheese, and green onions.
Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour. This will make it easier to shape the football cheese ball.
When ready, shape the mixture into a football.
Press the remaining crumbled bacon on the outside of the cheese ball and use the white cheddar shreds to make "laces"
Serve with crackers and veggies. Enjoy!
